For computer vision, deep learning, video solutions (such as security cameras), or office automation, top systems may incorporate multi-channel streaming, real-time software-based analytics, and more. On the heels of its newest release, you can get your geek on to integrate intelligence into your apps with the updated Intel® Computer Vision SDK (Intel® CV SDK) Beta R2. It delivers improved runtime performance, code algorithm efficiencies, and enhancements to the Deep Learning Deployment Tool. And we can’t forget – new support for more OSs: Windows 10*, Ubuntu 16.04*, OpenCV 3.3*, Yocto MR3*. Additionally, a new easy-to-install and use OpenCL driver is included.

Dive into the Fun Technical Stuff

See below the details of what's new in this release.

Improved Deep Learning Tools

Model Optimizer

New support for TensorFlow*, a deep learning framework (partial features apply to GoogleNet V1, V3).

Horizontal fusion support for Caffé.

Inference Engine

Custom Layers support on GEN.

Provides an application to verify the actual inference on the target hardware to validate accuracy (top1/top5) on image classification problems and to measure performance (in FPS) for selected batch sizes.

Improved scheduling with Intel® Threading Building Blocks closed the gap for heterogenous use cases and give you the ability to control where your code is running easily (CPU, GPU and so on) without writing targeted code for each hardware platform.

Model Optimizer generated code in VAD provides the ability to debug the application.

OpenCL™ Custom kernel code generation is now supported.

Additional OS Support, OpenCL driver Now Available

The new release includes support for Windows* 10, Ubuntu* 16.04, OpenCV* 3.3, and Yocto* MR3. Additionally, a new easy-to-install and use OpenCL driver is included.

The Computer Vision SDK supports these Intel® platforms:

6th generation Intel® Core™ processors

Next-Generation Intel® Atom processors
